Willy struggled violently even as he bawled, "Save me, Granduncle!!!" Tony promptly strode up and


    bellowed at Frank right then, "Stop! We were being reasonable here, but you''d hurt Willy instead?!


    Would you rather we not be reasonable?!" "Calm down, Mr. Lawrence," Gus reasoned as well,


    reluctant to fight Frank.


    "Heh..." Frank chuckled nonchntly in spite of Tony and Gus'' wary stances. "You''re the ones who


    should be begging. Even before I came, there were only two options I was going to offer Willy." As he


    spoke, he crushed Willy''s other kneecap with his foot-the man was in so much pain that he drifted in


    and out of consciousness, but all he could do was curse and yell Frank''s name.


    "I''ll kill him if youloser," Frank said just then, seeing that Tony was ready to attack.


    His warning promptly left Tony straightening warily-he could already tell that Frank was strong, and that


    killing Willy was a matter of will for him.


    "Then what do you want?!" Tony bellowed, ring at Frank in rage.


    "This prick will taste the pain he''s inflicted upon Nash Yego, and it''ll be a lesson for life. Naturally,


    whether he lives depends on what you do..." Folding his arms before his chest, Frank sneered,


    "Remember, I never cto reason with anyone-you''re all going to beg for Willy''s life. Right now, I''ll infuse


    a poison within his body that will leave him in screaming agony for three days and nights. Attack me,


    and het die, and then it is war." Frank narrowed his eyes, his tone sinisterly cold and sending chills


    down everyone''s spines. "Sure, you Soranos are rich and powerful, but none of you can stopif I want to


    escape. After that, I''ll retaliate in the worst way possible... as for what that actually means, you can


    sleep on it." Both Tony and Gus could feel their skin crawling at Frank''s threat.

    However, there was no doubt that the Soranos would have their hands full if they really upset a martial


    elite of Frank''s caliber.


    Unlike the Lionhearts, whose influence revolved around the martial arts scene and had et numerous


    martial artists among their ranks, it would be a pain for the Soranos if Frank was determined to hurt


    them-especially if he resorted to gueri tactics. As both Tony and Gus stayed silent, Frank could hear


    the footsteps downstairs.
